Chemical Information
FooDB Name3-Mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol
Description3-Mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol, also known as 3-methyl-3-sulfanyl-1-butanol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkylthiols. These are organic compounds containing the thiol functional group linked to an alkyl chain. 3-Mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol is a sweet, meat broth, and roasted tasting compound. 3-Mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as alcoholic beverages, arabica coffees (Coffea arabica), coffee and coffee products, fruits, and robusta coffees (Coffea canephora). This could make 3-mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 3-Mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol.
